I made a panoramic projection of the landing image from the Intuitive Machines Odysseus lander.
The touchdown was faster than anticipated, so you can literally see the landing legs breaking off in that image.
@tom30519 They said during today's press conference that the lander thought it was 100m higher than it actually was due to the landing LIDAR not working (even with the patch).
This meant they landed with the engine running thinking there were still 100m to go.
